We’re really excited about this gig—it’s the first one with our new drummer, Emily. There’s a real excitement at band practice with a new addition to Salter Cane, and we can’t wait to share the new twist on the line-up with everyone.

So come along on the 23rd for the unveiling of the newest version of Salter Cane. Doors open at 8pm and we’ll be on sometime between 9:30pm and 10pm. See you there.

This is going to be a bittersweet gig. ‘Twill be sweet because we always love playing with Caramel Jack. But that is tempered with the sadness that comes with knowing that this will be Jamie’s last gig with the band.

Yes, Jamie is moving on from Salter Cane. We’ll miss him. If you want one last chance to see him rocking that drum kit, then I’ll see you on Friday evening. Doors are at 8pm.

Things have been quiet around here lately. That’s partly because we’ve had our heads down, getting some new songs recorded and mixed at Metway Studios.

We’ve got four new songs in the can. Now we just need to figure out what to do with them. They will certainly appear as part of an album further down the road, but maybe we’ll release them as an EP first …just like we did with Black Swollen River: all the songs on that EP later appeared on the album Sorrow.

The recording went well. We captured a good live in-room sound, and we’ve layered on a bit of discrete organ here and there. Hopefully it won’t be too long ‘till you hear the results.
